From Amelia… Before the summer’s end my husband, Christopher, and I threw a Brazilian Churrasco party at our house. Christopher used to live in Brazil where he mastered the art of Brazilian cooking. Guests were greeted by a ribbon hung sign inviting them to the side of the house. The food was churrasco style, a Brazilian form of BBQ which involves cooking meat for hours on spears over a charcoal pit. Christopher even blacksmithed his own spears to be authentic! In addition to the meat, a pineapple was also speared and massaged with cinnamon sugar, almond and vanilla extracts.

For drinks we imported Brazil’s favorite soda, Guarana. For the floral decor I foraged tropical plants and flowers from our garden. We dined under Spanish moss covered trees at round tables and mingled and dined until the sun went down.
